Default Re: Hey Fossilman what do you think?

You would not sue the cardroom and there would be no damages. You would sue the state in some form of declaratory action asking the court to give you the proper interpretation of the statue.

That's fine, except you'd have to own a casino to have standing.

not necessarily. Someone who files as a pro might be able to sue because it affects their business.

Speaking of Fossilman, has anyone noticed how bad his sharkscope rating is? In fact, he and Hachem and Moneymaker are all net losers according to sharkscope.

Easy answer.....they aren't good sng players. It's a very different game and actually today sng's are very difficult to beat at high buy-ins....pretty much impossible if you aren't nearly perfect with your ICM play (and ICM is pretty likely something they have never heard of....or at least haven't spent time studying).

End this line now or this thread will be locked and a few time-outs will be given. If you want to talk about their poker skills (or lack thereof) take it to NVG.
